"Nagorno Karabakh indirectly participates in the process of conflict
settlement," French Co-Chair of the OSCE Minsk Group Bernard Fassier
said in response to ArmInfo question.

In his words, Nagorno Karabakh was a party to the negotiations in
the past. "The sooner Karabakh becomes a party to the negotiations,
the better. We expect that Karabakh will be immediately involved in
the negotiation process in the future," the French mediator noted.

American Co-Chair Matthew Bryza noted, for his part, that the mediators
always respected and reckoned the Karabakhi side. "The respect for
the opinion of our friends from Karabakh is evidenced by the regular
visits to the region and the meetings with its leadership."
